iPhone Life - Best Apps, Top Tips, Great Gear

I'm pretty rough on my iPhone, so it's a good thing I typically have it in a sturdy protective iPhone case. These days you absolutely do not have to have a bulky case to have a thoroughly protective iPhone case. In fact, in terms of bulk, many manufacturers of heavy-duty cases have managed to whittle their size down to the bare minimum, in some instances putting them on par with minimally protective iPhone cases. One of the newest cases to hit the market combines simple, unobtrusive style with above average protection without sacrificing a slim profile or adding a lot of extra bulk. The Pelican IP68 Marine (starting at $79.99) is the latest waterproof case for the iPhone 6/6s and iPhone 6 Plus/6s Plus series of iPhones. At first glance it looks great, but how does it actually perform in the field? Read on to find out my first impressions of this latest case from Pelican.

Like with anything, there’s a balance to be struck. Here at iPhone Life, we recently did a podcast in which associate professor Ana-Paula Correia from Iowa State University came on to talk about the phenomena. Are you nomophobic? Do you have an iPhone Addiction that’s going unchecked? Take this questionnaire to find out.
